Understatement.
Some people were convinced it was the new Amazon HQ.

Good thing you started these thread, the other 16 page thread on this exact topic wasn't cutting the mustard...

To put it into perspective. LSU alone could probably fill all those positions within a year.
And that's assuming half of these jobs are not just relocations of persons are employed by said company.

Would love to see what incentives HP received from the state before it proves to be beneficial other than jobs alone.

2000 tech jobs of what type?
Will it be like IBM who never produced the jobs in BR because they came looking for only cheap labor?

Read the article. It is NOT HP.

Also, IT companies can have very high percentages of full time "remote" workers.
This doesn't mean 2,000 jobs for people living in Louisiana, much less New Orleans.

So most if not all of these job applicants will be brought in from out of state.

You’re right. My apologies. Point being that it would still be interesting to learn what incentives they received.
